i don't think there's an elected official that can make that statement in the last 50 years. i only raised $300,000 to become the governor of minnesota. the democrats and republicans in the same race spent a combined $12 million. and that was back in '98. >> jesse, will you be running or not, in 2016? >> i don't know. i need to be -- i need to have valid access in all 50 states and i need some type of guarantee that i will be allowed in the debates. because you cannot win if they won't let you debate. but if you can debate, you can win. because in minnesota at the primary, i was only polling between 8% to 10%. i was allowed in the debates, seven weeks later i was the governor of minnesota. you know, they always say, piers, in the private sector competition's good, right? isn't that what we always hear? well, how come competition isn't good for president. why has it been 20 years since we've seen any third voice in a presidential debate? because these two parties will -- they make the rules and they will not let anyone else win. so i would require huge help from you the people
